Earlier this week, Kanye West found himself in a heated exchange of tweets with deadmau5 after he posted a screenshot of a computer with a Pirate Bay browser tab that was bootlegging a copy of the digital synthesizer plug-in Serum. Yesterday, Kanye was approached by a paparazzi at LAX where he addressed the Pirate Bay affair saying, “I took a picture of it in the studio and everyone was like, ‘Don’t put that up!’ blah, blah, blah. I was like, let it go up.” He also stated that there was some irony involved as well referring to an approximately million illegal downloads of his own album, The Life of Pablo, “The reality is people in the music industry hypocritically download sounds.” Watch the clip above.
